Having a favorite nut is nutty.

I went to Costco today for the first time in over a year. I had to sneak in because I'm not a member. I couldn't buy anything.

 
I've raved about the Blue Diamond Almonds before.

The Wasabi and Soy ones don't stand a chance around me.

Also a big fan of Smokehouse

 
My brother and his wife are on vacation in Savannah. This afternoon they saw a guy get shot in a driveby 10 feet in front of them. They're pretty messed up about it.

So I'm not sure how to help my 10 year old.

She's a perfectionist and when things don't go right especially in sports she gets mad , and overly upset and things just spin out of cobtrol. I try not to push her but am hard on her sometimes. She's had this issue since she was very little. I just don't know what to do.

does it keep her from doing things? or is it that she just gets upset when her perfectionist expectations aren't met after trying things? describe "overly upset".

AngerCrying

Last night was full meltdown crying episode.

She is so afraid to mess up. Even though I tell her to try your best it's ok to mess up

Does she have other worries/anxieties?

As a privileged member of Costco who earned his right to buy mass quantities of whatever I want along with selective higher end merchandise through my status as middle class I resent the riffraff sneaking in.

In other news, had a good moment of karmic satisfaction the other day when I was travelling from Milwaukee to Seattle (before Stryker gets his panties in a bunch, I hit 5 cities in about an 18 hour period (Indy, Chicago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis (airport)) but that's completely tangential to the point - I was waiting in line for security in Milwaukee. There were maybe 10 people in the PreCheck line and 10 in the regular line. The airport people's office of the sheriff security guard starts telling people that PreCheck is closed and the one guard left, starts alternating between the short regular line and the short PreCheck line. It's working pretty well. Maybe a 2 or 3 minute delay for the gilded aristocracy. One particular see you onTuesday gets very upset with this. Starts #####ing and complaining. "I'm special, I deserve to be treated differently". "Sorry get half undresed and take everything that might look like a 1950s bomb out of your bag". Nice security guy also adds that at 17:30 they lose half their staff that only work part time because they cut funding because the first thing you do when you fail detect 20 bombs in a test is cut people and are left only with the very few full timers working 14 hours schedules and yada yada yada. Tuesday doesn't care. Keeps moaning.

Meanwhile, off to the side several individuals are having a conversation, obviously concerned with the size of the line which is probably like 30 people on each side. They make a decision to take a couple of people and open the Pre-Check line. All the Pre-Checkers change line except Tuesday has already taken her laptop out of her bag and removed her shoes so is pot committed. Literally every other former Pre-Checker forced into poverty was then redeemed except for Tuesday and boy did she grumble about it. Made my gud dumned day

Hey man. Good morning. I ate a large bowl of raisin bran about an hour ago and it sent me into a feeding frenzy. Just finished two chili cheese dogs, 2 diet cokes, half a bag of cheese Harvest Chips, and finished up with milk and 2 Little Debbie brownie pkgs I put in my daughter's lunch. Its almost 5am.

Feeling bloated and probably won't see noon.

You're a wizard....a true star

 
Between the Longhorns coming up with new ways to wrench their fans' guts and my current six-day work weeks, I'm getting highly intoxicated tonight. Headed to the new booze superstore to see what strikes my fancy.

You know those giant teddy bears they have at Costco, as well as other places? I do the gag with my kids where I pretend like one of those bears kicks the #### out of me in the store. They eat that #### up.

Also a big fan of climbing up on top of the car and sticking my head in through the sunroof.

Do you have a bunch of alias membership cards for when they ban you?

Aside from not caring about Texas or having a job, this is just like me.

I told my son today that since it's a full moon at midnight all the frogs on our windows (we get a lot of frogs on our windows) would grow into huge frogmen and go hunting for food. I didn't tell him what they eat, but I think he got it.

Instead of a college fund, you should starting contributing to a psychiatric fund.

Sounds like they were on the wrong side of the garden of good and evil

My daughter is still scared of geese. I don't think she believes they eat people any more, but she doesn't not believe either.
